A VK3 microwave activity day is planned for this coming Sunday 28th August - from 10:00am to Noon AEST.Activity will be centred on 3398.100MHz with 144.150MHz or mobile phone liaison if needed.

At this stage, there will be groups operating from Mt Dandenong, Mt Anakie and Mt Buninyong. This is an opportunity for those who haven't had a chance to field test their GARC 3.5GHz panels.Weather forecast for Sunday 28th is partly cloudy and 14 degrees but we VK3s are built tough!

Great job Gavin. Looks like shorts & sandals with knee high socks weather. I hope I can find my safari suit.

This is a reminder about the VK3 microwave activity day this coming Sunday 28th August - from 10:00am to Noon AEST.Activity will be centred on 3398.100MHz. This is a great opportunity for those who haven't had a chance to field test their GARC 3.5GHz panels.Liaison, if needed: VK3RGL repeater 147.000MHz 91.5Hz CTCSS; 144.150MHz SSB; or mobile phone.

So far we have indications that there will be at least 13 stations involved operating from various locations.

Also count VK3VLA and VK3ACG at my location. I will be bringing my 2.4GHz gear for a test contact with VK3AV but I'd be happy to work anyone else I hear on that band. A little bearded bird tells me the the VK3KQ crew might venture out somewhere and the pressure has been applied to the man at 12B Church St Bayswater to progress the maintenance tasks on his tower.

Actually I don't know the answer to that Lou. I've never been there. Someone at work who lives in a nearby McMansion said there is still some vacant land and Goole Maps suggests there is some sort of parkland there - we shall have to see.
